Yep, Vidic ate Crouch for breakfast. Very good performance from a very good player. Although it must be said that's his meat and drink, he'll deal with balls into the box all day long, whenever he gets taken out of the box or isolated one-on-one he struggles. Gave away two or three really stupid free-kicks today in those types of situations, but unfortunately Spurs weren't good enough to take him out of his comfort zone, often enough.
Spurs just looked a side who, although they have quality, just don't have that top class quality. Someone to really step up and make something happen in a game like today.
It's probably the best sp*rs side I've ever seen, actually...they had a pretty good one with Waddle and Hoddle, but generally they've been a one or 2 player side {Allen, Ardlies, Gazza, Linekar,Sol, Berbatov}...but I think {and hope} today is just about the best they could be...they are still lacking 2 or 3 players in their first 11 that would make them true contenders imo.
Luckily for us I think this season is their only chance to move up with the "big boys" properly for a while...if they miss out i think they'll fall away like Villa did, as they have players past their best {Woodgate, King, Gallas] others that will always be hit or miss {Huddlestone, Palacious, Gomes, Pav} and some that are, well, shit {Jenas, assou-wats his name,}...'arry the twitch has done a very good job in installing confidence in them, but I believe, much as they've played well, they've over achieved. if they finish 5th, which i think they will, i think Modric and Bale could be off.
...and then they move to stratford.😆
